“Many of my students have been able to gain new employment or get promotions they wouldn’t have gotten otherwise” because they were able to gain or update to the latest skills. “The Upstate IT scholarship is one big way the iSchool has put Scholarship in Action as an affordable vehicle to help working adults gain access to the courses that can change their life in a measureable way,” Dischiave says.
That is a population also in need of educational opportunities, even though universities historically have tended to focus their financial aid resources on undergraduates, observes David Dischiave, assistant professor and director for the iSchool’s Global Enterprise Technology program. The iSchool is aware of the fact that many working adults have been affected by changing job market conditions. “I would not have been able to do this without the scholarship,” he says. As a young man newly in the workforce, he enrolled in the program to help achieve and maintain a competitive advantage.
The same is true for Cordell Ennis, now a consultant in technology for Accenture. Between the financial aid he received and tuition assistance from his employer, the family man with three children will graduate this year with a master’s degree in telecommunications and network management “with zero debt”- a factor that made it all possible, he says.
That was the case for Damon Mone, now manager of commercial and carrier operations at Time Warner Cable in Syracuse. In that case, the school does not reduce the amount of its aid (as some colleges do), further illustrating its commitment to the program goals. In addition to the significant financial aid that the 50 percent tuition program provides, some enrolled students may also receive financial help from their employers. The application deadline is May 1 for preference consideration. All can be fully completed through distance learning, and the school is encouraging interested students beyond the immediate Syracuse area, anywhere in Upstate New York, to apply.
